Giftz consolidates & tokenizes rewards as micro consumptive value coins using the blockchain, allowing them to be issued, tracked, exchanged or shared between companies, friends and family. Companies like Amex and Hilton Honors allow their customers to redeem points and miles through Amazon. When merchants use blockchain rewards, they offer many new redemption options for their customers. Issuing liquid tokenized points captures customer goodwill and can reduce the costs of redemption for the merchant. Billions of dollars in stored value is being purchased, earned and redeemed each day, but goodwill is only captured one-to-one. We share each time a participating business "giftz" a member in our global feed. This captures goodwill and increases brand awareness to all. Visit Gifts @ https://www.giftz.com/.
